Iron Ball Dropped in Sand

Its sand and water..
If it were just sand, the ball would make a crater on the surface then stop moving. Its a mixture of a hydrophobic sand and water. Hydrophobic meaning if you take the sand out of the water, its normal sand, but in the water it behaves as it would normal sand underwater.

- I think it is sand underwater. You can't see the surface of the water because it is above the camera angle and the ball is going through the water.

  Remember, its slow motion.
  Also, the sand is falling to quickly to be underwater...

Yeah, who cares what it is!
But I'm pretty sure it is a fine mineral like 500 grit aluminum oxide or silicon carbide...

CG?
I saved this as a video file and I speeded it up by double on my movie creator program. It appears to me that this is fake and it's actually CG. Is this true?

sand or water
I'm can't say it's fake, but neither is it normal beach sand. It probably is a very fine sand, because it does show a lot of the characteristics water has.

- You bring up an excellent point.
  We don't know what kind of sand it is. If it's beach sand, it could be composed of seashell grindings, or limestone (like Cozumel). Or it could be river sand with heavy metals, or an alluvial desert sand. Or 100% silica, or possibly glass beads. Or it could be fines from a rock crusher. I don't really care.
